Dear all,

maybe this is a dumb question from an newbie, but...  ;-)

I've connected a RAID with appr. 2,6TB to my new installed
Fedora-System (Fedora Core 3, Adaptec 39160 and RAID is an
EonStore).

When running fdisk the biggest partition i can create is 2TB!

when trying to create the filesystem with mkfs.xfs directly
on /dev/sda i also get only 2TB !

so, what am i doing wrong?   is the adaptec 39160 the problem?
(this because i read something about such big raids working
with 3ware 9000 RAID cards)

Thanks a lot for your help!
Christian
